Have you
ever found yourself changing TV channels non-stop and being able to watch two
soaps at the time? I have, and it is terribly annoying. Maybe it is not the
same in your country, but in Spain you have to keep patient if you want to
follow a complete episode of any program.
At first,
they allow you to watch a few minutes and get stuck to the plot. But when
things really start to happen, they give you an extra dose of advertisements
long enough to make you lose faith and change channel! What’s curious is that
you will soon find an interesting program that’s just about to finish. OK,
perhaps I’m not the luckiest guy watching TV and there may be someone who’s got
all the ads and programs schedules under control. However, if they’re able to
switch channel and watch soap after soap (I think if this person exists, it
must be a lonely, and bored, old person who spends the day sewing and
swallowing Latin series) it is because there’s time enough of breaks to combine
two programs in an afternoon.
Though I
have to say that there are some really funny commercials, that worth it. Such
as some moving and even disturbing ones… so you can comfort yourself thinking
that there’s someone who does well his job behind this amount of
advertisements.
These are two commercials I really like, the second one is in spanish but it is maybe better not to understand what it says because it is disturbing... hope you enjoy them!
